FLYING YOUR ROCKET<br />

Choose a large field (250 ft. [76 m] square) free of dry weeds and<br />

brown grass. The larger the launch area, the better your chance of<br />

recovering your rocket. Football fields and playgrounds are great.<br />

Launch only with little or no wind and good visibility.<br />

Always follow the National Association of Rocketry (NAR) Safety Code.<br />

MISFIRES<br />

TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE CONTROLLER. WAIT ONE MINUTE<br />

BEFORE GOING NEAR THE ROCKET! Disconnect the igniter clips and<br />

remove the engine. Take the plug and igniter out of the engine. If the igniter<br />

has burned, it worked but did not ignite the engine because it was not<br />

touching the propellant inside the engine. Put a new igniter all the way<br />

inside the engine without bending it. Push the plug in place. Repeat the<br />

steps under Countdown and Launch.<br />
